Religion

NOTE: I made the edit but then realized that I was offline so the I.P is: 121.216.57.216

Someone changed the quote "But He's an all-loving God" to "But He's not an all-loving God" so I reverted it back. I regard this as pure ignorance and vandalism.

If anyone sees this in the future please help fix it =)

Is Hit Parader reference really necessary for top paragraph?

While a well-known and well-regarded vocalist in heavy metal, referencing Hit Parader's idea of who is the best hardly seems core to Tom's identity.

Especially considering that the list in question lists many artists outside of heavy metal. Consider, for example, that Tom ranks 2 spots higher than Rod Stewart.

This list isn't really worth noting.
